Resident Alien is one of the most quirky comedy series ever. The Syfy series stars Alan Tudyk in the lead and Sara Tomko as Asta Twlevetrees. Resident Alien tells the story of an alien (Tudyk), who is sent to Earth to destroy mankind, but fortunately, he crashes and lands his alien spaceship in Patience, Colorado where he kills a man he meets and takes his identity. Now, the alien is Dr. Harry Vanderspeigel for the outside world and he must keep up the facade at all times. Along the way, the alien gets more and more interested in humans and struggles with destroying the Earth. Resident Alien recently concluded its brilliant second season and is gearing up for a third one so while you wait for the upcoming season to air here are some shows you could watch to pass the time.
People of Earth (Hulu)
Synopsis: People of Earth centers on skeptical journalist Ozzie Graham (Wyatt Cenac), who investigates a support group to write about the members’ supposed alien encounters. The more he digs into their oddball claims, the more he realizes there is truth in their stories and possibly even signs that point to his own alien abduction. The onetime outsider now finds himself a part of this eclectic group of misfits, all the while struggling with the idea of knowing that life could exist beyond our world.

Synopsis: DOOM PATROL reimagines one of DC’s most beloved groups of Super Heroes: Robotman aka Cliff Steele (series star BRENDAN FRASER), Negative Man aka Larry Trainor (series star MATT BOMER), Elasti-Woman aka Rita Farr (series star APRIL BOWLBY) and Crazy Jane (series star DIANE GUERRERO), led by modern-day mad scientist Niles Caulder aka The Chief (series star TIMOTHY DALTON). Each member of the Doom Patrol suffered a horrible accident that gave them superhuman abilities, but also left them scarred and disfigured. Traumatized and downtrodden, the team found their purpose through The Chief, coming together to investigate the weirdest phenomena in existence. Following the mysterious disappearance of The Chief these reluctant heroes will find themselves in a place they never expected to be, called to action by none other than Cyborg (series star JOIVAN WADE), who comes to them with a mission hard to refuse. Part support group, part Super Hero team, the Doom Patrol is a band of superpowered freaks who fight for a world that wants nothing to do with them. Based on the characters created for DC by Arnold Drake, Bob Haney and Bruno Premiani.
Hyperdrive (Prime Video)
Synopsis: At the forefront of this expeditionary force is the HMS Camden Lock, helmed by the irrepressible, if a little tetchy, Commander Henderson. Ably assisted by a crew of misfits – the further they are from Earth the better, quite frankly – the Commander steers his ship through the stars, giving orders from his big swivelly chair. His crew? Well, you wouldn’t wish on your worst enemy… or maybe you would… Experience the highs, the lows, the anti-gravity failures, the annoying talking mops, and, of course, the wars with alien races. Lots of wars. Always in the national interest, of course.
